Korean Makgeolli
Jiranjigyo Fig Takju
지란지교 무화과 탁주
Jiranjigyo Fig Takju is a 12% ABV makgeolli from Jeollabuk-do, produced by the Chingudeuluisul Jiranjigyo Brewery using glutinous and non-glutinous domestic rice with traditional wheat nuruk. Fig syrup layered over the rice-nuruk base introduces a ripe, plush fruit tone that reads as naturally sweet rather than artificially sugary, while red beet powder adds a subtle rosy depth to both color and aromatic perception. The 500ml bottle carries enough structure at 12% to support the fruit richness without collapse, and the traditional nuruk provides an earthy counterweight to the fig sweetness. It is one of the more visually and aromatically expressive takju options in the fruit-infused category.

Jiranjigyo Yakju
지란지교 약주
Jiranjigyo Yakju is a 17% ABV cheongju (yakju) from Chingudeuluisul Jiranjigyo Brewery in Jeollabuk-do, the same brewery that produces the Jiranjigyo Fig Takju. Built from a blend of glutinous and non-glutinous Korean rice with traditional wheat nuruk, this is one of the higher-ABV offerings in the yakju category. The 17% concentration delivers notable depth and persistence without sacrificing the refined, clean line expected of a quality yakju. Rather than sweetness-heavy weight, the dual-rice composition creates layered grain complexity where each sip reveals successive depths. The 375ml format positions it as a measured, sipping-oriented pour ideally suited to composed multi-course Korean meals where the drink needs to complement, not compete with, successive dishes.
